Gov’t Study Concludes Ethanol NOT Better for the Environment than Gasoline

Remember how we have to pay to subsidize a crap ton of genetically modified corn (yes, not just a ton, but a “crap ton”), because we have to make the supposedly green biofuel ethanol? We are told it is so much better for the environment, right?

The Obama Administration and others claim it’s truly a ‘clean oil alternative’ that will help ‘combat climate change’, after all.

Well according to a new study — a study our government spent half-a-million dollars on that was just released in a peer-reviewed journal — that is simply untrue, as AP reports:

…biofuels made with corn residue release 7 percent more greenhouse gases in the early years compared with conventional gasoline.

While biofuels are better in the long run, the study says they won’t meet a standard set in a 2007 energy law to qualify as renewable fuel.

Guess they’ll just up and change the standard to fit the agenda yet again like they usually do when they don’t like reality… (Raised permissible levels of nuclear radiation in drinking water post-Fukushima, anyone?)

Reminds me of a lot of other supposedly “green” stuff we are told — through heaping amounts of green guilt propaganda or greenwashing — we should all run out and buy right away “for the environment”…those CFL light bulbs immediately come to mind.

You know the curly little bulbs that contain mercury, so if you accidentally break one, your trendy green energy-saving Earth bulb suddenly becomes a toxic, hazardous waste pile for you and the environment, which is why the EPA recommends a multi-step hazardous materials clean-up process that involves clearing all humans and pets out of the room.

Basically when the government says something is good for me anymore, I have to wonder if it really is or if they are just saying that because someone high up in there got paid to say that so someone else could get a big, fat kickback because people believe it.

Sure, that may sound paranoid at first read, but here’s a list of a whole lot of reasons why I say it:

(And the sad part is, the revolving door between our government and big business spins so fast, these diagrams couldn’t even keep up with it if the people who created them wanted to.)

Aaron and Melissa Dykes (formerly Melton) created Truthstream Media to figure out what in the hell is really going on around here.

Co-founder of Truthstream Media, Aaron Dykes is an investigative researcher and video creator with over a decade of experience in uncovering the secretive and often nefarious that gravitates around power. Together with his wife Melissa Dykes, Aaron has traveled across the country in search of threads tied to political intrigue, black ops, military industrial complex, the weaponization of science, a hidden history of eugenics and population control, unethical human experimentation and the quest to control the physical mind that remains ongoing and little known. Aaron has been part of hundreds of videos and interviews on a variety of important topics across the spectrum of geopolitics and conspiracy, news and olds.

Melissa Dykes is the other co-founder of Truthstream Media, and a passionate and witty voice for common sense and sanity in a world plagued by lies, corruption and deep conspiracies that has patched over reality and left a world of naive and helplessly herded people lost in technology, and cut off from their own history. She has focused her investigative research and video production on issues ranging from health and safety in smart meters, EMF, ersatz food, cell towers and other modern environmental concerns, to the dark underbelly of covert experimentation, CIA plots, secret infrastructure and the organized and systematic control over the minds of the population. Melissa has written dozens of articles, edited and produced countless videos, and several documentary projects in the hopes of shining a light in the right places.
